Dubai
is a leading tourist destination with a wide variety of attractions that you
can try. Since Dubai is located along the Indian Ocean, top among Dubai’s
attractions are water sports. For a thrilling adventure, one of the water
sports you should try during your trip is the Jet Ski Dubai.
What is a jet ski and how does it work?
A
Jet Ski is a personal watercraft (PWC) that is powered by a jet of water.
The
water craft has two water intakes; one on the bottom and one on the back. The
bottom nozzle is bigger and is used to take in water. The nozzle on the back is
smaller and squirts out water hence providing the power needed to propel the
Jet Ski forward. The term ‘jet’ in Jet
Ski therefore refers to the jet of water that powers the water craft and
propels it forward.
How to ride a Jet Ski
For
first time Jet skiers, here are a few instructions to help you maneuver the Jet
Ski;
●
Drive
straight
It
is often difficult to keep the Jet Ski straight for a first time jet skier. To
keep the watercraft moving straight, look off into the distance instead of
looking at the handlebars. This will help you navigate the Jet Ski in a
straight direction
●
Always
keep the throttle on
Taking
off your finger on the throttle makes you lose steer control of the water craft
and makes it stop it stop or slow down. Always keep your finger on the throttle
so that you are able to steer away in cases where you need to drive away from
danger or avoiding a collision.
●
Boarding
the Jet Ski after falling in the water
You
may need to board the water craft again in case you fall into the water. You
should reboard from the back, not from the side since this causes the Jet Ski
to flip over. Grab the handle behind the seat and pull yourself out of the
water onto the back deck of the watercraft.
●
Relax
your grip
Your
hand may get tired or sore from gripping too tightly on the handles. Relax your
grip on the watercraft, lean forward while keeping your elbows slightly bent.
This allows you to ride comfortably without getting tired.
●
Do
not stand
Standing
makes it more difficult to control the Jet Ski and increases your chances of
falling over. Remember to stay seated on the water craft for a more comfortable
ride.
